David Tedesco Revolutionizes Camera Backpacks With Atlas Packs

I also purchased a Capture Clip from Peak Designs which allows you to fix the camera to the shoulder strap in place while hiking – a great addition to this pack. 

 A small hole developed in one of the side waterbottle pockets but I can take resposibility for that when I shoved the tip of my trekking pole in there. 

Important: Choose the Adventure or Athlete hip belt – otherwise you will have literally no padding on your hips. I don’t recommend using the bag without a hipbelt either. The Adventure belt is more comfortable as it provides two layers of foam padding and a wider webbing and buckle – it’s also bigger and bulkier.

Even with the camera compartment loaded the back pannel is comfy and I never feel any of the gear inside digging into my back.

The Ultimate Photography Backpack - My Atlas Athlete Pack Review - Chris Eyre-Walker Photography

 It goes all the way down in the front here, so you reach all the way down into the front of the bag. Right here, there's my hand going all the way in some more dry dry packs, so you can stuff clothes and things all the way down there. It'S got a little laptop sleeve right here in the front it might be hard to see, but you can slide your laptop in there and it sits against the cube, so it stays stays flat and it doesn't kind of jostle around and then here's the frame. So there's the steel frame i was talking about - and this is the large frame and you'll see it goes to here

 You can see that so there's the sizing for the large frame there's the sizing for the medium frame. Now it will fit under uh under an airline seat as it is in the large frame and will also fit in the overhead. You can just put the medium frame in if you want it to be even a little bit smaller [ Applause ] additional pouch on the inside. It goes to there additional molle webbing and then a nice little spot for your name here, more straps on the inside

 There are also spots here to put in a smaller frame a medium frame. I think this is the large frame you can retrofit this pack to be a medium frame, and the medium frame goes right right here. You can see that so there's the sizing for the large frame there's the sizing for the medium frame. Now it will fit under uh under an airline seat as it is in the large frame and will also fit in the overhead

 We'Ve got this nice mesh here, but then there's also some ribs. That kind of raise that you know to allow for some more airflow, which i think is really nice, these pockets, which you can pop out [ Applause ] and have extra little pockets here that you can put lenses in things like that. I mentioned lens pouches earlier. In fact, let me grab one of these, so i own several of these pouches, which are the think tank pouches

Best Camera Backpack for 2022 - Atlas Packs Athlete Backpack

 Is this bag just cinches down into a much smaller footprint, because there's a lot of bags out there? It'S a 40 60 liter pack, whatever it is, you might only have 15 or 20 liters in the bag or maybe only you're, only using a quarter of its carry capacity, but the footprint of the bag or main is the same so that be able to have A pack that can really kind of switch squish down into a smaller footprint to me is everything, that's a very, very good quality, so just to jump right into it. Of course, this is the the yellow version. This is the also the tall version it comes in a regular size and I'm 6 foot 2, so that the tall version works perfect for me and just right on the outside, you have these straps up here, so you can strap really any additional items. You would like to it there's also a pocket whoops right here on the front

 Alice is a great job with the the comfortable comfort ability of their harness system and their waist belt, and you might be noticing something no words the waist belt with this. What'S what is fantastic Atlas gives you the option that you can take it on or off. It'S up to you and they make great West waist belts very meaty. There'S a lot of material here, a lot of a lot of substance and durability, so they're very good at the waist belts

 I just want to talk about this real quick on the the back panel. It'S kind of got like a rib design and it is very comfortable and it's got like kind of exaggerated lumbar area right here, which makes carrying this bag very comfortable and in the waist belt, actually tucks right back in here. Let me actually show you on the other bag, so they sent me to. This is a athlete pack and black, but what's different is this one is the regular version

 You have another little stretchy area. Here goes all the way to the bottom: a couple zipper pockets here you could put SD cards or batteries or remote shutters or whatever you like there and that's the the camera compartment.

Best Mirrorless Camera Bag? Atlas Packs Athlete Backpack

I recently bought a Trail 25 as a medium sized day pack. I have had a chance to load it out and take it for a short 5 mile wander.

In the end I am happy with the purchase. The pack suits my packing style, is comfortable and seems like it should last a while while being a reasonably priced item.

 A wide opening main body that thankfully lacks the over abundance of pockets common in bags of its volume. For a day hike I want a simple bag that I can pull my kit from my larger multi-day bag. The basic design eliminates that "now which pocket did I put that in" search for a beanie or what ever. With that said the limited pockets are perfect for my first-aid kit, head-lamp, toggle cord, water bottle(s), water purifier, sit pad, poncho, bug-dope, and navigation

Nearly Perfect Day Pack

This is for all of you big guys out there.  I'm a big guy  6ft with the profile of a grizzly. I like this pack. It is very comfortable

 I don't use the waist strap.  It rides very well even when I have one water bottle on one side.  I usually carry a soft fleece jacket, windbreaker or rain jacket, first aid kit, and other items, in case I needed to spend a night in the wild. It makes a great day pack for hiking

 I like this pack. It is very comfortable. I don't use the waist strap.  It rides very well even when I have one water bottle on one side

Great pack for big guys.

 This pack is straight up Goldie Locks porridge; this one is just right. It has enough storage without being huge. It’s light yet rugged and has everything you need. Buy it and thank me later

 for day hikes. It’s perfect for a weekender like me. The pockets and storage are laid out perfectly. It has a great setup overall and there’s a spot for your trekking poles too

This is the GOAT

.  or a laptop bag for work - my 13 inch Lenovo Yoga laptop fits in the hydrate sleeve perfectly.  or a carry-on for travel, as it fits under the seat with my laptop, headphones, sweater.

  or a carry-on for travel, as it fits under the seat with my laptop, headphones, sweater... It's comfortable and well made

I love this pack.  I would recommend this for a day hike, with a blanket, lunch, safety gear, a book, etc..  or a laptop bag for work - my 13 inch Lenovo Yoga laptop fits in the hydrate sleeve perfectly

This is a nice pack!

The zipper on the main compartment is an excellent design for getting things in and out. Additionally, the pockets on the sides, inside, and 'door' work great for all of my storage needs without being too much. Additionally, the loops that run down the outside, and the straps on the bottom are great for storage and for attaching things. The durability is pretty good, there is virtually little wear from daily use, and it's held up with I've crashed my OneWheel on the road

Excellent Bag For Every Situation

 But I realized I needed more space when carrying more stuff sometimes. This includes times when I'm not solo and I'm carrying stuff for 2 people or for winter activity when I/we want to have some extra layers. I knew REI had a good selection of small pack sizes so I went back to them. The Flash 22 is too close in size so I went for this Trail 25

 That worked, but it's also nice to not have a soaked bag. The straps are great, just exactly what you'd want for a bit more load. The mesh pocket on the inside of the lid works quite well, and so do the hydration features. Just keep in mind it's mostly a one-compartment pack

 I knew REI had a good selection of small pack sizes so I went back to them. The Flash 22 is too close in size so I went for this Trail 25. 

Needed one a bit bigger than my Flash 18

There was a really thin waist belt strap on it when I bought it, but it's basically worthless. It sits way too high, but even if it was in the correct location on your body, it's too thin to be comfortable if you tighten it enough to use it to support any kind of weight. I took it off. 

 Shoulder straps are pretty comfortable, there's compression straps on the outside to help keep everything stable, sternum strap. There's a picket at the bottom with a rain cover folded up inside. 

Decent pack

I really like my REI trail 25. Serves as my work/class bag, day trip bag, and plane carry on

I'm looking for recommendations for a backpack that I can use to ski with and take on small wilderness trips to a nearby forrest. I like the idea of a backpack that I can pretty much just throw on the ground and in the snow without having to worry about it tearing and such.

On skiing trips, I would probably throw in some clothes, extra gloves, a thermos and a first aid kit. On hiking daytrips, I would throw in my firestarteing gear, folding saw, hatchet and some food, so I'm probably looking at 20-25 liters.

Brands that I've looked at are Mystery Ranch, Arc'teryx and Black Diamond, would love any recommendations with these, but I'm open to new ones!
